Our First Tunes & Tomes!

Reading while she waited to leave for the library! Ok kids say "library!"

The Mother Goose Story Time at the library has been replaced by Toddler Tunes & Preschool Jams. Which is great news since Riley's dance class is done until fall. I took her to dance and left Isaac at one of the nearby tables with a crossword puzzle to do and a stack of books. It was fun! Riley was a star for sure. We picked out and checked out a dozen or so books. Isaac got 3 more battle books and Matilda! Riley got two Dora books, a Clifford, an Arthur book and a dinosaur book. Everyone left happy.

Happily reading on the way home to build our reading fort.

Kids reading in reading fort!

After they had an hour to read/goof off in the tent I gave them lunch. After lunch Riley took a nap and Isaac and I took apart the fort. After lunch we started our all about me books. They both colored the covers, drew themselves, their house and family. At which point Riley had a monster meltdown. She sat in time out wailing for almost 15min before she calmed down enough to come out.

At that point we decided to clean-up our crafts supplies and go play outside. I definitely feel like the days with both kids will be the challenge. Granted, Riley has just recovered from illness and we had one heck of a busy weekend so she'll probably do better Thursday.
